Biodiversity
Biodiversity is the sum of all species on the planet. Some of these species contain important
substances that treat several diseases. The most relevant thing about biodiversity is that the rich North needs it
and the poor South has it. One of the ways to promote a sustainable development is to pay the poor nations to
save the forests that they still have. Resources can be extracted but not exhausted. Thus, the environment can
be preserved. The Earth belongs to all mankind. Everybody needs to help in the protection of the planet. And
there is much to do. We have to fight pollution in all its forms to avoid acid rain, the greenhouse effect, and the
death of species, rivers, lakes and seas. (Adapted from Newsweek, June, 1992)
